They had to have been tough men to have sawn that tree with that saw alone. Look at them, not necessarily muscular in the strongman sense of the word; certainly not olympic class weight lifters - more wiry than not. What endurance they must have had. Amazing.
I wonder how many men, in how many teams of two, manned a saw like that to saw down a tree that big.
